Well after repair the SG (change of all out of value ceramic, electrolytics and micamold) the heathkit works good, I checked calibration and is good now, only 10% difference with a digital meter, I made the alignment and now the radio get the stations with accuracy and more volume, although still if I touch control grid of 6A8G I get better volume, also I found that compensator #4 was very loose and did nothing adjusting it to the output, the rest were ok.
